Garlic Junior....the enemy who had a filler arc and was defeated by not Goku but Piccolo , Krillin and Gohan...thus saving the world without Goku...yet for some reason people hate it 🤔. The saga before the Android where Krillin gets some fighting done too.
@@KaiserMattTygore927 Really? Couldve fooled me with the way "fans" of this series eat the shit up that Super produces. Hell, people want Vegeta to have a win just for the fuck of it. NO build up, foreshadowing. No just case. Again, Couldve fooled me.
what was bad about it was what also plagued the adventure on Namek.....too much cutting away to nonsense. The Garlic Jr arc kept cutting between too many little plots....you had the beef, which was the fights up on the Lookout, and then, second to that, but still acceptable because it was related, was the journey of Kami and Popo as they confronted the former Guardians and attempted to cure the planet with the Mystic Water....However, you also had cuts to the infected populace on Earth....subdivided into the normal general public in cities and towns...and the main characters like ChiChi, Roshi, Bulma, Yamcha, etc...In ADDITION TO THAT, you had Vegeta training and searching for Goku in space, in an attempt to become a Super Saiyan (considered by some to be the real curiosity of this arc because they were hungry to pick up Goku and Vegeta's stories from the previous Frieza arc). At some point, the story should've just focused on the Lookout business - Gohan, Krillin, Piccolo and the Garlic squad...and Kami and Popo. The arc dragged...because we wanted to see the conflict resolved AND see what was going on with Goku and Vegeta....something that wouldn't be delivered until the Trunks/Android saga finally aired. God...waiting for that shit to drop was hell.
"Star" and "planet" are the same word in Japanese 星 (read as "hoshi" or "sei" like in "Makyosei") which really only refers to the dots of light in the night sky. Many languages do not have words differentiating "big ball of gas" from "smaller ball of rock orbiting the big ball of gas." They just have a word for "dot of light in the night sky." This often causes translation issues, hence why the infamous Speedy dub keeps calling planets "stars."
Dead Zone is such a 90’s anime movie; I absolutely adore it. I think it worked really well as an “in between” story for DB and DBZ but I also accept that it is non-canon.
The "Dead Zone Portal" is one technique I wish was used in Xenoverse 2. Imagine it being this one hit KO move that is just as dangerous to the user as it is to the opponents.
I always found it convenient that the guy who successfully wishes for immortality is the same guy who knows the move to lock you in another dimension. I wonder how this could go down... twice! 🤣
Can we please get a blast deflection theory video? Like when Nappa's arm went numb when he deflected angry Gohan's Masenko? or maybe a video on what happens to a person during a beam struggle?? Like what it takes to win and the toll it takes on the body/mind/Ki levels??
It’s not well known that the Dead Zone is an actual plane of existence that people can be transported to. It is theorised that one way to access the Dead Zone is to binge watch literally EVERY Dragon Ball episode including Z, GT, and Super one after the other without stopping
OMG I never thought the dead zone technique would be so dangerous that even light can't escape. If Goku Gohan were able to survive it means they are above light speed.
I always though it be interesting if Toriyama ever brought Garlic JR into canon to retcon the deadzone technique into one where he rips a hole into the world of Void from the TOP arc. It's basically the same thing.
If would've been cool if they remembered the Dead Zone during the Zamasu/Goku Black Arc and trapped the immortal Zamasu in there lol. But trying sonreleased Garlic Jr who is now super strong because he trained mentally like Piccolo does and then became a 3v3 of goku, Vegeta, trunks vs Zamasu, black, and garlic Jr. Idk throwing ideas out there lol.
I loved that commentary 😁😁 “In the MEA-dowww we can build a snowman, MAN” 😂 my friend and I used to quote his commentary a lot Some other classic lines: “And welcome to the inside of Chris Sabat’s cartoon throat” “Reduced him to sketch!!” “Ohh, shot to the chest!”
All right my favorite villain finally getting some love.... Now if he would just be released on dokkan battle. Still to this day there is so much potential for garlic jr as a villain.
Would love to see Garlic come back but with his father this time to kill Gohan and destroy the earth not turn it evil.....it could work......for my OG's who remembers "New Years Evil" on Toonami
Garlic Jr: So let me get this straight, I send you fools off to find me a Dragon Ball and you bring back a toddler. Cinnamon: Well, we did bring back the Dragon Ball. Garlic Jr: AND a toddler! Did you try, I don't know, taking off the hat? Cinnamon: Well, we did thought about it on the way back, but it really brings in the whole "Chinese prince" look together. Ginger: And he's your size! You can work that stuff! Garlic Jr: ... Fair enough. - Dragon Ball Z Dead Zone Abridged
It's true that the Dead Zone is similar in many ways to the Phantom Zone. That's actually the first comparison I made when I first saw the technique in action.
Good video! I found it funny how the names of the movies can change, in the US is called "Dead Zone", in Latinamerica the movie is called "Give Me Back My Gohan"
Here’s an idea for the next one : Big Bang Kamehameha or Final Kamehameha. The Big Bang goes in wave like patterns while the Final one seams more Violent and straight forward
plus given it freezes the body and soul, implies it would even be a fate worse than death to a non immortal character, as they would be stuck, unageing, undying, for eternity potetially while presumably still being aware of their surroundings
I really love the deadzone movie. It has a real hong kong saturday movie feel to it. Plus of you assume Krillin blocked off the Trauma of Gohan peeing on his head it can be fit into the main timeline easily.
MOST UNDERRATED MOVIE EVER. You could take someone who doesn't know anything about Dragon Ball, I think it's utterly stupid, and show them dead zone and it get them into it. Reason is all the basics are explained in this one movie when you think about it. There all martial artist, this guy is saving his son from crazy demon alien things, the dragon Grants you one wish, and the good guys don't want the bad guys to get it.simple and clean
The deadzone technique reminds me of a black hole due light cant escape it.but quick question you dont have an video on the reason why vegeta never achieve SSJ3?
Wow ,isn't that a floop with translation . My understanding was , that deadzone was place where kami banished garlick senior. And Jr just was able to open it.
Would you ever consider doing a series of videos of "x versus" where x would be a character and give your opinion of how they would match up to other characters that are roughly equivalent to them from different times and places? EX Bojack vs Cell, Movie 1 Garlic Jr vs Raditz, etc.
Hey emperor big D how u doing man i was wondering can u do video talking about legends i know it's just a mobile game but the story is SO freaking good i think you'll like it plus we get to know stuff about ancient saiyans and "the blood of the defeated" and "the blood of the tainted" i think you'll be surprised about how good it is
“A fate worst than death” being stuck in a infinite dimension with no way to return and you can’t even kill yourself to end the misery because your immortal now that’s f@$ked up😞😞
You’d eventually go insane from boredom and sensory deprivation. You’d also be dying of hunger and thirst, with no means to satiate or quench it, so it’d be physically torturous as well. Add in the immortality preventing you from dying and you’d indeed be dealt a fate worse than death. An eternity spent completely alone, bored out of your mind, famished, and unable to die.😐
(Dead Zone theme plays) Gohan: Oh god, he's giant and immortal! There's literally no way to defeat him! Garlic Jr: That's right fuckbois! Now behold...! (Dead Zone opens) The terrifying abyss that is the Dead Zone! For banishing me before you shall suffer that same gruesome fate forever. And... wait...(theme stops) did I...? I just did it again didn't I? I literally just did exact same thing that got me an L last time! What am I doing?! This exactly what my therapist told me not to do! Kami: we're very proud of you for seeking help. Garlic Jr: I'm doing it for me, but I appreciate the support. Anyway...! Nobody move. Nobody do anything! I'm going to close it up, and i'm going to let my immortality wear you down and- (head shot) HEAUGH! ( immediately gets sucked into the dead zone) Alucard: Kept you waiting, huh? (smash bro's theme plays)
ELEVENTIETH!!! Also, I can't help but agree with TFS on this one & gottah ask; just how many different special edition versions of the same movie do you need?
Black Star What? Why would he? Vegeta try to out run it, Freiza try stop it, Majin Buu try to over power it and send it out of space. All of Goku enemy’s in the Z story got hit with ganki dama but he never even made an attempt to use it against Cell. I don’t understand.
@@blackscreennoiseforrelaxat1517 also takes time to make. Cell has goku cells so he knows of the technique. If he is aware that it will kill him he won't let goku do it
Black Star Flashback to freiza when he saw the spirit bomb in the reflection of the sea being made by Goku before it was strong enough to kill him. Piccolo gohan and krillin went to fight freiza to keep him away from goku. The same thing could have happened with cell. Just like the Z fighters all ganged up on Cell during the final Kamehame blast, they could have done the same with goku and the spirit bomb.
@@blackscreennoiseforrelaxat1517 yeah but they chose to fight cell 1 on 1. Reason of the whole cell games. If they all jumped cell he wouldn't have been that big of a threat
I wonder, does the pull of the Deadzone that sucks everything in increase in strength based on the power of the person using it?? Like say if you had a Makaioshin or some kind of other demon that was able to learn it and was way more powerful than garlic Jr would it make it harder to overcome the Deadzones pull or does it just have a finite amount of power to it no matter who summons it? I know there's no exact answer since the guide books probably don't touch on it more, just curious on your thoughts on that or if there even is an answer.

man it was always one of my favourt moments in z! defo the best filler arc even salt n peper was good
Because the ARc sucks.
I like the idea of !NotGoku winning, but the arc still has to be... good?

@@UnifiedEntity man super sucks ass garlic jr arc was better than anything super did
I love when other characters get more shine and it isn't always about Goku
"i am immortal so now i will summon the one thing that can beat me!"
Just like every very powerful main character in anime Must die to a random cold
Makes sense... shame he never wished for a brain.
A good ol hakai would take him out
Lol true 😂

From what I remember, I didn't really think The Garlic Jr Arc was that bad of a Filler Arc.
It was fine for what it was.
what was bad about it was what also plagued the adventure on Namek.....too much cutting away to nonsense. The Garlic Jr arc kept cutting between too many little plots....you had the beef, which was the fights up on the Lookout, and then, second to that, but still acceptable because it was related, was the journey of Kami and Popo as they confronted the former Guardians and attempted to cure the planet with the Mystic Water....However, you also had cuts to the infected populace on Earth....subdivided into the normal general public in cities and towns...and the main characters like ChiChi, Roshi, Bulma, Yamcha, etc...In ADDITION TO THAT, you had Vegeta training and searching for Goku in space, in an attempt to become a Super Saiyan (considered by some to be the real curiosity of this arc because they were hungry to pick up Goku and Vegeta's stories from the previous Frieza arc).

I think it was decent for filler. The fact that it focuses on the side characters is cool.
I skipped it does that matter

When I was younger I thought Garlic and Pilaf were the same species lol
Not surprising considering there both short, blue, bald, have pointy ears, and are voice by the same English voice actor
Wait... there not?
The "Dead Zone Portal" is one technique I wish was used in Xenoverse 2. Imagine it being this one hit KO move that is just as dangerous to the user as it is to the opponents.
I was thinking about it
Yes!
Always a good day when Geekdom uploads 💯
I’ve never read something worth more fact
True that!
I watched this Yesterday and I found it enjoyable, easy watch
InB4 Garlic Jr returns to Heroes.
I always found it convenient that the guy who successfully wishes for immortality is the same guy who knows the move to lock you in another dimension. I wonder how this could go down... twice! 🤣
Can we please get a blast deflection theory video? Like when Nappa's arm went numb when he deflected angry Gohan's Masenko? or maybe a video on what happens to a person during a beam struggle?? Like what it takes to win and the toll it takes on the body/mind/Ki levels??

It does make sense though if garlic is the opposite of Kami who is God and he is the devil Then he is now stuck in hell, Fitting
enlightening
geekdom: damn, that sucks for him
me: HA, sucks
OMG I never thought the dead zone technique would be so dangerous that even light can't escape.
If Goku Gohan were able to survive it means they are above light speed.
Love these explained videos.
I love the Garlic Jr. Saga..
Did always like the effect of the sky cracking and breaking apart like glass when it was used, just a cool looking technique essentially.
Idea:Garlic Jr returns after the deaths of the Z-Warriors when one member of his race wishes on the dragon balls to bring planet Machio back.
I always though it be interesting if Toriyama ever brought Garlic JR into canon to retcon the deadzone technique into one where he rips a hole into the world of Void from the TOP arc. It's basically the same thing.
That Black Water Mist theme was so hype!!
I know right it's a favourite of mine as well 🙏
If would've been cool if they remembered the Dead Zone during the Zamasu/Goku Black Arc and trapped the immortal Zamasu in there lol. But trying sonreleased Garlic Jr who is now super strong because he trained mentally like Piccolo does and then became a 3v3 of goku, Vegeta, trunks vs Zamasu, black, and garlic Jr. Idk throwing ideas out there lol.
That would actually be dope asf cause he needs to be brought back and fleshed out
I enjoy Chuck Huber's Christopher Walken impression in the Dead Zone commentary.
I loved that commentary 😁😁 “In the MEA-dowww we can build a snowman, MAN” 😂 my friend and I used to quote his commentary a lot
Some other classic lines:
“And welcome to the inside of Chris Sabat’s cartoon throat”
“Reduced him to sketch!!”
“Ohh, shot to the chest!”
I can’t wait for the technique guide for forced spirit fission
"Eventually Garlic stopped thinking"
Maybe i'm the only or in the minority but I really like Garlic Jr and Dabura. I think both of them were criminally underused.
He probably wish he got a nightlight in case he ever caught trapped in the Dead Zone again.
My favorite DBZ movie of all time.
With all the crazy stuff going on in the world these vids make me happy and forget the bs for a while
Glad to see Garlic Jr get some shine, I feel like I'm the only one that likes him lol. Maybe cause as a kid he reminded me of the Hulk...
This video is great but I kinda miss the transformation guide
All right my favorite villain finally getting some love.... Now if he would just be released on dokkan battle. Still to this day there is so much potential for garlic jr as a villain.
Rumors say that, eventually, Garlic Jr. stopped thinking.
Would love to see Garlic come back but with his father this time to kill Gohan and destroy the earth not turn it evil.....it could work......for my OG's who remembers "New Years Evil" on Toonami
I honestly never minded the garlic junior arc
💯🏆I love Garllic Junior⚡⚡⚡
Not even light can escape it? Like a black hole?
Kid Gohan is stronger than a black hole?!
Nice explained DBZ technicue 👍
Garlic Jr: So let me get this straight, I send you fools off to find me a Dragon Ball and you bring back a toddler.
Cinnamon: Well, we did bring back the Dragon Ball.
Garlic Jr: AND a toddler! Did you try, I don't know, taking off the hat?
Cinnamon: Well, we did thought about it on the way back, but it really brings in the whole "Chinese prince" look together.
Ginger: And he's your size! You can work that stuff!
Garlic Jr: ... Fair enough.
- Dragon Ball Z Dead Zone Abridged
Geekdom what’s your opinion on Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood?
Geekdom back again with another banger
garlic jr arc in z was one of the best even if it was filler
It's true that the Dead Zone is similar in many ways to the Phantom Zone. That's actually the first comparison I made when I first saw the technique in action.
Good video! I found it funny how the names of the movies can change, in the US is called "Dead Zone", in Latinamerica the movie is called "Give Me Back My Gohan"
I was just watching the team four star version of the movie then I switched to this
Wait so is the garlic jr arc and movie cannon or not cannon
Good Job on this Video!
It was such a weird movie, but it had its moments
Here’s an idea for the next one : Big Bang Kamehameha or Final Kamehameha. The Big Bang goes in wave like patterns while the Final one seams more Violent and straight forward
Piccolo: It's supposed to be an end all move for your enemies Garlic Jr, not yourself!
Damn so my takeaway was that We can scale garlic to hyperversal since it’s a pocket dimension
It means Gohan is above Hyperversal since he was able to escape it.
plus given it freezes the body and soul, implies it would even be a fate worse than death to a non immortal character, as they would be stuck, unageing, undying, for eternity potetially while presumably still being aware of their surroundings
Hey geekdom you make awesome videos and I'll like to see more in the future
So it’s the shadow realm.
People in 2020 still think the Shadow Realm is a thing? Literally just censorship for death lol.
Hermes Trismegistus I know it a censorship thing I’m not stupid.
The Deadzone movie is such a fav of mine besides the World's Strongest 🙏
Also, Rando question: Have you been keeping up on the Jiren vs. Broly fan manga at all?
I really love the deadzone movie. It has a real hong kong saturday movie feel to it. Plus of you assume Krillin blocked off the Trauma of Gohan peeing on his head it can be fit into the main timeline easily.
So it's basically a magical black hole

Theoretically, someone could gather the dragon balls and wish Garlic out of the Dead Zone 😅

Okay hi Danny good be a subscriber for years now never disappointed thank you
In my Dragonball Utopia fanfiction, garlic jr & his men are servants of Babidy
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but the dead zone and its effects literally describes a black hole. He makes a black hole.🕳

Sounds like a black hole when you said that not even light can escape.
Dragon ball wiki says that Garlic Jr is a reincarnation of Garlic. Like piccolo was of demon king piccolo. Where was this stated?
“A fate worst than death” being stuck in a infinite dimension with no way to return and you can’t even kill yourself to end the misery because your immortal now that’s f@$ked up😞😞

Deadzone where TH-camrs ad revenue goes
If garlic jr return in dbs would garlic jr kidnapped pan just like they did with kid gohan?
What i the name of the ending theme for the video?? Anyone know?
I thought garlic jr came back again, in Fusion Reborn (I think, or maybe that could be Bojack)
Yoo I deadass thought geekdom was taking a break from making videos, TH-cam never put his vids in my feeds ever, that’s annoying

Who else thought the video meant the time from when someone dies and them goes to the afterlife
I wonder, does the pull of the Deadzone that sucks everything in increase in strength based on the power of the person using it??

So I've been told. 🤷🏼♂️😂
